Let's have a look at the event logs...
Please open Event Viewer
In the left pane, navigate to the Windows Logs
right-click on Applications and select 'Save all events as...' save as Apps.evtx
repeat for the System logs - save as Sys.evtx
Compress both files, and attach to your reply.
Here's some highlights...
From the Apps log:_
NvStreamSvc - NvVAD initialization failed [6]
NvStreamSvc - Failed to set NvVAD endpoint as default Audio endpoint [0]
NvStreamSvc - NvVAD endpoint registration failed [0]
The best advice is to disable the NVidia Stream service in the Services.msc control panel
..and an EventID 10
"Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected." - look here for advice about that... Event ID 10 ? Event Filter Query Functionality
The System log :,
A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the Internet Movil. OUC service to connect.
The Internet Movil. OUC service failed to start due to the following error: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
The Service problem appears to be an auto-updating service for an ISP or an online service of some kind?
PLease run the following commands, and we may find out a little more.
SC QC "Internet Movil. RunOUC"
SC QC "Internet Movil. OUC"
(I expect the second to fail, so don't worry!)
Post the results
Thx. Slightly confused.
Disabled Nvidia stream service.
Simply uninstalled Internet Movil - doesn't work anyway.
Didn't know what to do re Event filter.
Rebooted. Same printer probs - open Word 2nd time, and it hangs on Print command.
Also in procexp, still getting "Error opening process" on those progs I listed.
My ignorant impression is it's all something to do with print queueing.
Anyway, just tell me what else to try.
It's possible - unfortunately, the event logs are only recording the event itself, and not the cause.
Perhaps you may be able to see what causes it by looking for the event details yourself
Open the Application log and use the Filter option to filter on event IDs 2000 and 2001.
Do you get any real data there? (I don't)
If not, see if the Action Center has any details worth mentioning (you can post any attached files if you want)
Yeah they just highlight an error in opening Office/Word - and that Word and Notepad "stopped responding" several times -without explaining.
Both MS Printer Fixer and Diagnostic hang again on "Checking spooler service for errors"
On googling, s.o. suggested starting Bluetooth services to get Devices andPrinters working, but doesn't work for me.
I'm temporarily lost... !
OK - lets have a close look at the spooler service...
Open an Elevated Command Prompt and run the following commands....
NET START SPOOLER
SC QC SPOOLER
SC QUERYEX SPOOLER
SC SDSHOW SPOOLER
SC QPRIVS SPOOLER
SC QSIDTYPE SPOOLER
post the results

This could be the problem - My system has it as

Open an Elevated Command Prompt and run the following commands
NET STOP SPOOLER
SC CONFIG SPOOLER TYPE= interact
NET START SPOOLER
Make sure that you get the spacing right - it's TYPE=<space>interact !!
Test Word/print after that - if it still fails, reboot and test again.
